When you have insomnia, you sleep, just not very well. Sometimes only ranging about 5 minutes sleep- to about 3 hours.
It’s actually a fact that after four days with out sleep, a human could go insane.

Of course people suffering from insomnia need to get rest and sleep, it’s just that no matter how tired we feel (physically or mindfully), our body resist allowing us to fall asleep. It’s really a pain. Usually we could fall asleep only until sunrise.

When you have insomnia, you’re never asleep, but you’re never really awake.
People with insomnia DO sleep, but much less. Consequently, they are not able to be as active as the people that get 8h every day. My personal record without a second of sleep was 4 days and 4 nights. Science says that after 8 days you’re in danger of dieing….

Insomnia doesn’t mean you don’t sleep at all, just that you have trouble sleeping.
I go through phases of insomnia where I will be unable to sleep more than 1-2 hours at night, then the next night I will sleep 8-9 hours but restlessly… then repeat for a week or more.

They doze, but they are lacking in a brain chemical that drives the need for sleep, so they feel like they don’t need it. While you and I get about 8 hours of sleep an insomniac gets more like 3 or 4, scattered here and there throughout a 24 hour period.

I’m still alive I didn’t sleep for 7 days. Your body does need to recover, every muscle in my body ached. But, worse was my mind needed rest. It’s hard to understand unless you have insomnia.

It’s almost 2AM here. The reason I’m awake is that YOU and Yahoo Answers are keeping me awake!

I read that a radio DJ stayed up for 200 hours to raise money for charity. As time went on he became progressively insane. I could only get to 96. lol.
Hope this helps. Good luck =)

Trust me, a person can have insomnia but your body still needs sleep. There are different reasons why people develop insomnia, but your body does end up slowly shutting down if you don’t sleep.
